[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2245311, member: 18914"] BTW - why is SYG such an issue in regards to the Zimmerman-Martin case anyway? SYG was not used as a defense and played no role, other than a theoretical one, in this case. Is the AG implying that SYG is why Zimmerman was released? If so, that is demonstrably false. His discussion of the age-old duty to retreat is nonsense. People may retreat when they feel overmatched or feel it would be expedient but natural law - which precedes and frankly supercedes positive law - allows any person to defend him or herself. Why would anyone want to pass a law that attempts to restrict the rights of a person who is, lawfully, exercising his right to be wherever he wishes to be from defending himself? [/QUOTE]
